    This helper macro is used as a wrapper around \l QVERIFY2() to provide a
    detailed error message in case of failure. It is intended to be used \e only
    in the helper functions below.
 
    The custom \a comparator method is used to check if the \a actual and
    \a expected values are equal or not.
 
    The macro uses a custom \a represent callback to generate the string
    representation of \a actual and \a expected.
 
    The error message is close to the one provided by the \l QCOMPARE() macro.
    Specifically the implementation is taken from the \c formatFailMessage()
    function, which is defined in the \c qtestresult.cpp file.

    Basic testing of a bindable property.
 
    This helper function tests the behavior of bindable read/write property
    \a propertyName, of type \c PropertyType, in class \c TestedClass.
    The caller must supply an \a instance of \c TestedClass and two distinct
    values, \a initial and \a changed, of \c PropertyType.
 
    Since the first part of the test sets the property to \a initial, it
    \e {must not} be the default value of the property, or the check that it
    was set will be vacuous.
 
    By default \c {operator==()} is used to compare values of the property and
    \c {QTest::toString()} is used to generate proper error messages.
 
    If such comparison is not supported for \c PropertyType, or the comparison
    it supports is not appropriate to this property, a custom \a comparator can
    be supplied.
 
    Apart from that, a custom \a represent callback can also be specified to
    generate a string representation of \c PropertyType. If supplied, it must
    allocate its returned string using \c {new char[]}, so that it can be used
    in place of \l {QTest::toString()}.
 
    The \a helperConstructor method is used to create another instance of
    \c TestedClass. This instance is used to test for binding loops. By default,
    the method returns a default-constructed \c TestedClass. A custom
    \a helperConstructor should be provided if \c TestedClass is not
    default-constructible. Some very specific properties cannot be tested for
    binding loops. Pass a lambda that returns an \c {std::nullptr} as
    \a helperConstructor in such case.
 
    \note Any test calling this method will need to call
    \code
    if (QTest::currentTestFailed())
        return;
    \endcode
    after doing so, if there is any later code in the test. If testing several
    properties in one test method, emitting a warning message saying which
    property failed, before returning, is a kindness to readers of the output.
